Are you ready, knitters? Two popular Knitbot patterns are now available in children's sizes!
Meet Fledgling Featherweight and Bitty Breezy.
Fledgling and Bitty are sized to fit children ages 2 - 12. They are right at home next to the original Wispy Cardi pattern which now has a new size to fit children ages 2-4!
I've packaged all three patterns together in a new e-book: Little Knitbot. Many, MANY, Featherweight, Breezy and Wispy Cardigans have been knit over the past few years. If you're one who has enjoyed knitting these patterns, you can now knit versions for the kiddos in your life!
The Little Knitbot patterns feature a new yarn from the Fibre Company: Meadow. When I say new I mean new, it releases today! You can read more about it on the Kelbourne Woolens blog. It's a 2-ply blend of merino, baby llama, silk + linen. The merino and llama provide softness and bounce, the silk sheen and drape and the linen a crisp hand and lovely stitch definition. It's a heavier lace weight, which is my favorite kind of lace weight.
Below are pattern specs for all three Little Knitbot patterns. They can all be purchased individually. If you purchased Wispy Cardi through Ravelry in the past you'll be receiving the updated version of the pattern with the new size.
